What this shows MS's Innovation Score is 29.5/100 (31st percentile of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for MS?

Each dot is one of MS’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). MS’s own 6.7 claims/patent is at or below the 12.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where MS's grants concentrate

MS Autotech Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 20 CPC subclasses with 54.5% of grants classified under B21D (Working OR Processing OF Sheet Metal OR Metal Tubes, Rods OR Profiles Without Essentially Removing MATERIAL; Punching Metal). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, MS sits between Mott Corporation and Murakumo Corporation.

MS's three-year grant acceleration

MS Autotech Co., Ltd. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
